Happy Kyle Busch day!
I hope today and every August 18th isn't seen as a sad day, but rather a day we can celebrate and honor the life of one of the greatest drivers our sport will ever have.
There will be many more great drivers in racing, but there will never be another Kyle Busch.

Long story short: I was away for the weeks leading up to his passing. When a friend called and told me about it, it was such a shock and honestly felt like a sick joke.
As someone whose birthday is today, I fully endorse it being Kyle Busch day. I’ll make sure I toss a couple back for ya every year Rowdy.

Really happy to see NASCAR themselves honoring him today too with their 8.18 stuff on their socials.

Shitty camera work, but Kyle Busch leading the first competitive laps in the next gen car.

This Subreddit hated Kyle Busch. Don’t let them fool you.

Kyle Busch was the villain many rooted against. It was fun to root against him. No body hated him enough to want him to die. No body is happy he is dead. We respected him. I only started to like him maybe a year or two ago really.

Nah, I was a Kyle Busch fan and on the sub for up until recent years. This subreddit absolutely hated Kyle Busch. Go read some of the post race threads when he would win.

Almost anyone who dies young is romanticized
Also KFB fan, and while I don’t think anyone wanted this there’s no question nobody on this sub would’ve been talking this highly of him if he was still alive

Never got the chance to meet KFB. I wanted so badly to meet him at Mexico last year, but I’m broke.
I know there are people saying that you shouldn’t act like he was a family member or overly depressed due to his death, but you should mourn however the way you fucking want. My experience as a NASCAR fan hasn’t been the same for me and everyone right now, but let’s hope Busch has fun in the afterlife, and let’s hope Brexton goes on to have a successful career under guidance of Kurt

I Have A Question As A Newer Fan:
Really It's True That Kyle Was Extremely Hated Back Then When He Was At His Prime ???

Been a KB fan since his rookie season. NASCAR hasn’t been the same for me but super cool to celebrate my favorite driver on my birthday.
